Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone ever suffered or have a child suffer from recurring tonsillitis. My child is 4 and constantly has it I have been told she will not need a tonsillectomy until she is of school age. At the minute she is suffering with quite a sever case she is almost finished her antibiotics and is getting worse. Should I make a trip to the er? #advice#tonsilitis#mom#daughter#er ?
